Connect Peripheral Equipment
There is a wide range of audio and video equipment that can be connected to your TV. The following connection diagrams show you how to connect them.
Note: EXT1 can handle CVBS and RGB; EXT2 CVBS, Y/C and RGB; EXT3 CVBS; HDMI can handle VGA (640x480 via a DVI or HDMI connector) and 480p, 576p, 480i and 576i.
It is preferable to connect peripherals with RGB output to EXT1 or EXT2 as RGB provides a better picture quality.
Note: If your recorder is provided with the EasyLink function, it should be connected to EXT2 to benefit from the EasyLink functionality.
Recorder (VCR-DVD+RW)
Note: Do not place your recorder too close to the screen as some recorders may be susceptible to signals from the display. Keep a minimum distance of 0,5 m from the screen.

éLook for the test signal of your peripheral in the same way as you do for a recorder.
“When a recorder is connected to EXT. 1 you can only record a programme from your TV. Only when a recorder is connected to EXT. 2 it is possible to record a programme from your TV as well as from other connected equipment.
